by Lynette Lewis Climbing the Ladder in Stilettos offers a refreshingly positive perspective on how to achieve while maintaining our focus on personal goals. Lynette Lewis has pinpointed the essence of what can make working life difficult for women. She outlines the different types of people and situations we encounter and gives great examples of workplace behaviors. Lewis explains how to deal with feelings such as when you don’t enjoy your work or don’t gain fulfillment from it. She puts emphasis on the concept of “wholeness” as a determining factor in our successes. Using vignettes from successful women, Lewis is able to give wonderfully pertinent insights into our motivations and the sacrifices we make in our careers. Finally, someone says it. Lewis talks about the impact of family abuse on workplace interactions. She also uses great personal examples to illustrate her points. In one passage, she discusses the importance of allowing time for oneself while balancing the need to do for others. Climbing the Ladder in Stilettos is the guidebook for the burned-out career woman. It is full of exercises that help the reader dig down, identify goals, and design a blueprint for reaching those goals. Lewis has hit the nail on the head with this book.
